⭐️ This week’s shoutout goes to our organizational committee members. These individuals have been working hard alongside our planning committee to make sure that the blueprints we have been given will be executed successfully for the 2026 Rural Oncology Conference. They honor the mission of RCI in the work they do and we want to acknowledge all of their efforts. We are lucky to have them be a part of our team!
